TOPICEmployees should have the right to work remotely when their job can be done remotelyContested
CURRENT FOCUS· Definition

Half this thread is fighting a ban nobody proposed. A right to remote doesn't outlaw offices — it moves the burden of proof. Today the employee must justify absence; under the right, the employer must justify presence. That's the entire change. If your office is genuinely worth commuting to, you'll have no trouble making the case.

Sorry for my English, but the clause everyone waves at — "when the job CAN be done remotely" — is where the whole fight lives. Half my job is drawings I can do anywhere; the other half is a concrete pour at 6am. Who rules on the margin? A tribunal? HR? The law will be written by software people and worn by the rest of us.
